Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of bonding a film to a curved substrate. It also relates to a device designed to implement such a method.
  • the film may be a polarizing film, a contrast-enhancing film, a photochromic film, etc.
  • the face of the lens is curved, it is not possible to apply the film directly to the lens when the film has an initial shape that is plane. This is because delaminations, tearing and/or pleats then appear, which are due to the difference in curvature between the film and the face of the lens. It is therefore necessary to preform the film in order to give it an appropriate initial curvature before applying it to the lens.
  • the film is preformed by thermoforming, by pressing a pad onto one side of the film so that the face of the film that is located on the same side as the pad becomes concave and the other face of the film becomes convex.
  • the film may have been heated beforehand, to make it more flexible when it is deformed by the pad.
  • such a preforming method generates large stresses in certain parts of the film, essentially in peripheral parts of the latter, which result in local stretching or even tearing of the film.
  • that face of the film against which the pad is pressed is often damaged, owing to the rubbing that occurs between this face and the pad. It has microscratches that may be visible or may cause light scattering.
  • particles and dirt may also be encrusted in the film by the pad during the preforming.
  • One object of the present invention therefore consists in proposing a novel method of bonding a film to a curved substrate, for which the stresses generated in the film are reduced, and which does not create surface defects in the film.
  • the invention proposes a method of bonding a film having a substantially plane initial shape to a curved face of a substrate, the method comprising the following steps: a) when the film is at a temperature above 40 0 C, a peripheral edge of the film is held firmly and a pneumatic pressure difference is applied between two sides of the film until an application face of this film becomes curved with a curvature greater than an average curvature of the face of the substrate; b) when the temperature of the film has dropped below 40 0 C, the pneumatic pressure difference applied between the two sides of the film is adjusted so that the curvature of the application face of the film becomes approximately equal to or less than the curvature of the face of the substrate; and c) while maintaining the pneumatic pressure difference adjusted at step b) , the face of the substrate is pressed against the application face of the film until complete contact is established between the film and the face of the substrate, a layer of an adhesive being placed between the film and the substrate .
  • a method according to the invention bonds the film to the substrate.
  • the assembly obtained is then permanent and provides an element that combines the respective properties of the film and of the substrate.
  • the film is bonded to the curved face of the substrate, with that face of the film called the application face turned towards the substrate.
  • the film may give the assembly an optical property, such as coloration, a polarizing power, photochrome behaviour, etc., or surface properties, such as hydrophobic behaviour, an anti-soiling effect, protection against scratches, etc.
  • the method includes a first step a) of preforming the film, which is carried out by applying a pneumatic pressure difference between the two faces of the film.
  • preforming has at least two advantages. Firstly, the stresses that are generated in the film, in order to give it a curved shape, are well distributed and consequently not very likely to form localized stretching or tearing of the film.
  • the film is held in place by its peripheral edge and the deformation of the film is created by a larger gas pressure that is applied on one side of the film. No solid object, which could have for example a counter- form function, is therefore in contact with the central part of each face of the film during preforming. In this way, no scratching of the film occurs, nor is any foreign particle encrusted in the faces of the film.
  • the temperature of the latter may be precisely controlled during preforming, especially relative to the glass transition temperature of the film.
  • the shape conferred on the film before it is assembled with the substrate may also be well controlled, while still ensuring that the temperature of the film during step a) remains below a limit temperature above which the film could be degraded.
  • step c) is carried out using two independent control means : the pneumatic pressure difference applied between the two sides of the film on the one hand, and a means for pressing the substrate against the film on the other.
  • the film is held in place by the pressure difference with the shape that is given to it in step b) while the bonding is taking place.
  • the bonding may be carried out with precise alignment of the film and the substrate that face each other .
  • a method according to the invention therefore makes it possible to obtain an assembly, consisting of the substrate and the film, which has very good optical quality. Such quality is compatible with many applications of the substrate provided with the film.
  • the method is compatible with ophthalmic applications.
  • the substrate may therefore be an optical lens, an ophthalmic lens, a lens for sunglasses, etc.
  • the pneumatic pressure difference is applied between the two sides of the film in step a) so that the application face of the film becomes concave with a curvature greater than the curvature of the face of the substrate.
  • step b) the pneumatic pressure difference is reduced so that the application face of the film remains concave and the curvature of the latter becomes less than the curvature of the face of the substrate.
  • step c) contact between the film and the face of the substrate, via the layer of adhesive, may be initiated in a central zone of the film and of the substrate.
  • the contact zone then grows progressively and radially as the substrate is applied with an increasing force against the film until the contact zone corresponds to the entire face of the substrate. In this way, no bubble is formed between the substrate and the film during bonding, since the bonding is carried out by expelling the air from the centre towards the peripheral edge of the film.
  • the pneumatic pressure difference applied between the two sides of the film in step a) is such that the application face of the film also becomes concave with a curvature greater than the curvature of the face of the substrate.
  • Step b) then comprises the following two substeps: bl ) when the temperature of the film has dropped below 40 0 C, the pneumatic pressure difference applied between the two sides of the film is reduced so that the application face of the film remains concave and the curvature of the application face becomes substantially equal to the curvature of the face of the substrate; and then b2 ) the pneumatic pressure difference is modified by reversing the sign of this pressure difference between the two sides of the film so that the application face of the film becomes convex.
  • This second method of implementation is suitable when the substrate face is convex or concave.
  • the application face of the film becomes concave again when the face of the substrate is progressively pressed against the application face of the film in step c) .
  • the bonding of the film to the substrate is again initiated in a central zone, which propagates radially into an increasingly large zone.
  • the bonding obtained is again free of bubbles .
  • the invention also relates to a device suitable for implementing a bonding method as described above.
  • a device comprises: a sealed chamber provided with a system for fastening the peripheral edge of the film so as to hermetically seal this chamber with the film; means for heating the film and means for controlling the temperature of the film, which is fastened to the chamber; means for varying the pneumatic pressure inside the chamber and means for controlling this pneumatic pressure relative to the pressure outside the chamber; a substrate support placed in the chamber; and means for moving the substrate support inside the chamber, which are designed to press the substrate against the film.
  • steps a) and b) may be carried out by actuating the means for varying and controlling the pneumatic pressure inside the chamber on the one hand, and the temperature of the film on the other hand, and step c) is carried out by actuating the means for moving the substrate support.
  • the device may further include an automatic control system designed to actuate both the means for varying and controlling the pneumatic pressure inside the chamber, the means for varying and controlling the temperature of the film, and finally the means for moving the substrate support. It is therefore possible to mass-produce composite elements consisting of a film bonded to a substrate, in a reproducible, inexpensive and high-quality manner.

  • the lens 1 may consist of any material commonly used in the ophthalmic field, this being a mineral material, an organic material or possibly a composite. It may be a correcting or non-correcting lens, for example of the unifocal, bifocal, trifocal or progressive type. This lens may optionally be bulk- tinted. It will be understood that the invention is independent of the type of lens used.
  • Sl denotes the convex face of the lens 1, or the rear face with reference to the position of the lens when it is used by a person wearing spectacles .
  • the term "average curvature of the face Sl" is understood to mean an average value of all the curvatures thus defined at all the points on the face Sl.
  • This average curvature is denoted in abbreviated form as the curvature of the face Sl.
  • this curvature may correspond to the values used m ophthalmics, in particular to correct various ametropias.

  • the pressure inside the chamber 10 is reduced so as to obtain a pneumatic pressure difference ⁇ P2 between the two sides of the film 2 that is between 0.05 bar and 0.3 bar.
  • the chamber 10 is thus kept continuously pressurized. Owing to the partially elastic behaviour of the film 2, the inflation of the film 2 towards the outside of the chamber 10 decreases.

  • a third step the piston 13 is raised so that the face Sl of the lens 1 comes into contact with the layer of adhesive 3 which is present on the face S2 of the film 2. Owing to the respective curvatures of the two faces Sl and S2 , contact firstly occurs at the centre of the lens 1 ( Figure 4c) and then extends radially as the piston 13 continues to rise. The face Sl of the lens 1 therefore pushes the film 2 towards the outside of the chamber 10, beyond the position of the film before the piston 13 started to rise. The face Sl of the lens 1 is thus progressively pressed against the face S2 of the film 2, with a rate of relative movement that may be between 0.1 and 1.0 mm/s. An upper limit value of this speed depends on the plastic behaviour of the film 2. In this way, the film 2 adopts the shape of the face Sl without forming a pleat or a tear ( Figure 4d) .

  • the lens 1 may be held pressed against the film 2 for a hold time that may be between 0.5 seconds and 2 minutes.
  • the overpressure in the chamber 10 is then removed, the cylinder 13 is lowered again, and the fastening ring 11 is removed.
  • the lens 1 is then recovered, with the film 2 bonded to the face Sl.
  • the layer 3 consists of a curable adhesive, the lens 1 and the film 2 are exposed to UV radiation or to a heat flux so as to permanently fix the bonding.
  • this exposure step may be performed before the lens 1 and the film 2 are removed from the chamber 10, while the overpressure ⁇ p 2 is still applied.
  • the lens 1 can then be trimmed. During this operation, peripheral parts of the lens 1 and of the film 2 are simultaneously removed, and a spectacle lens is obtained in which the film 2 and the face Sl of the lens 1 have identical dimensions.
  • a second operating method may be implemented based on the configuration corresponding to Figure 4a.
  • the film 2 is then cooled substantially down to the ambient temperature TQ, but the overpressure in the chamber 10 is now adjusted so that the film 2 adopts a curvature substantially identical to that of the face Sl of the lens 1 ( Figure 5a) .

  • the face S2 of the film 2 is then convex.
  • the pneumatic pressure difference applied between the two sides of the film 2, denoted by ⁇ P 3 may be between 0.05 bar and 0.5 bar in absolute value, corresponding to a reduced pressure obtained by suction through the orifice 15.

  • the faces Sl and S2 of the lens 1 and the film 2 respectively come into contact in the central zone of the lens 1 ( Figure 5c) .

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de collage d'un film (2) à un substrat incurvé (1), comportant les étapes consistant à préformer le film en appliquant une différence de pression pneumatique entre deux faces du film et en chauffant ledit film. On confère alors au film une forme intermédiaire, qui convient à l'application du film contre une face incurvée du substrat. Ladite application est réalisée d'une part en maintenant le film dans sa forme intermédiaire au moyen d'une différence de pression ajustée appliquée entre les deux faces du film et, d'autre part, en pressant le substrat contre le film au moyen d'un support mobile (12-14). Un tel procédé est utilisé pour obtenir une lentille ophtalmique exempte de défauts à laquelle est collé un film.
